The room was spacious, well lit and cozy. The morning breakfast was outstanding! It was so complete I didn't have lunch the entire week I stayed at the Inn. The bathroom was also very clean, well decorated, and conveniently located next to the bedroom. The mini-fridge had chocolates, water, soda and seltzer at no extra charge. Joannie, the owner, is a fantastic host. She has lived all over the world (Greece, Turkey, Argentina, Uruguay, LA, Boston, to name a few) In her fundraising work at Harvard and USC, she met many, many interesting people and has great stories to tell. The breakfast conversations we had were so interesting I had remind myself to visit the relatives I flew 3000 miles to see. I unconditionally recommend the Hydrangea Inn!

Absolutely charming!

What a treat it was to stay at the Hydrangea Inn. Joan was a gracious hostess who made us feel right at home. The breakfast was delicious and a great time to ask Joan questions about the area. She was a wealth of knowledge and an interesting lady? Oh, and the view of the bay was a bonus we didnt expect! We would certainly stay here again.
